have any of you taken the time to read the Foundation series by Issac Asimov? Everything that I read before it was forgotten and everything after pales in comparison ( except mabey Memnoch The Devil by Ann Rice)]]>Wed, 11 Jul 2007 10:59:19 +0000http://www.bobafettfanclub.com/boards/post/39754/#p39754http://www.bobafettfanclub.com/boards/post/39746/#p39746
As of now my favorite books are the Boba Fett series, The Blind Assasin, and my collection of vegan/vegetarian cookbooks.]]>Wed, 11 Jul 2007 03:17:10 +0000http://www.bobafettfanclub.com/boards/post/39746/#p39746http://www.bobafettfanclub.com/boards/post/39741/#p39741

The Telisman by Stephen King was great.

-Pretty much all Star Wars books, specifically the ones about Thrawn and Fett.-Drizzt series(Forgotten Realms)-Entreri/Jarlaxle series(Forgotten Realms)-The Reaper Man, Good Omens, Hogfather, and Thud, all by Terry Pratchett.-LOTR-Harry Potter(Book six doesn't exist. Never happened. Hasn't been written yet. No.)- The Golden Compass series. Quite a good read, though I can't find one of the books in stock anywhere.

And several others that I can't think of the names of right now. Though I'd like to give a (dis)honorary mention to the Inheritance series by Christopher Paolini, which succeeds in plagerising(Spelling?) at every paragraph.

How does Christopher Paolini plagerize?

Lets see...Plot: Farm boy in small out of the way town, knows an old man who tells tales of an old order. A princess is caught while transporting valuable items stolen from the evil emperor to a rebellion. The farm boy finds the item, and so the emperors people end up burning down his uncle and his farm. The old man joins up with the boy and starts telling him about the order. He also gives the boy a special sword, which is later found out to be his fathers. The boy begins to learn the ways of the old order as he rescues the princess, meets up with a scoundrel, and goes off to join the rebellion: helping them defeat a huge threat that follows him there.This start alone should clue you in.There are also parts where he just completely copies titles. For example he once mentions "___ weilder of the white flame of ___". LOTR.If you would like some more examples: http://www.anti-shurtugal.com/starwars.htmThis site is quite good for them.Edit: In Paolinis newsletters he is a self admitted Star Wars fan. I have nothing against him for that, what I do have against him is that he copied it's plot and is making tons of money off it, while claiming it's original.

and i realize that "the bible" is the defining book in many peoples lives. i am not a stranger to it,but i do not find it a good read-so far as a page turner. im not trying to ruffle feathers, i have much respect for faith-just asking is it something you like to read or duty and guidence?

the dark tower series lost me after book two...talk about a sprawling tale.

a few have listed alice in wonderland(have not read)...and 1984, interesting.

The Holy Bible is more of a sence of duty.

I love the Dark Tower series.

I said Alice in Wonderland as a joke, as all of the others were ALICE Cooper related.

as for sev- ive heard of frank perretti, a religous fiction author. but not read. also sev,if ur into baseball-the book "money ball" will change ur world(possible hyperbole). but it is a must read. it breaks the game into abstract math-will affect you as a player.

I saw a certain tv show about something like that. Very interesting.

Isn't Frank Perretti the one who wrote the series about the two kids and the dad who have all those adventures (archological I think most were?) If so, I loved those books.

I know what series you are talking about but I can't recall what it was called. And yes it was by Perretti.
